Hello all,
I've encountered something that makes me suspicious that I've lost data. I
have a .MOD file (Grrr Cannon vidcams) that takes up 39M of storage. I
converted it to .mp4 with the simplest possible command:
jde-desktop% ffmpeg -i 002.MOD 002.mp4
And the resultant .mp4 is 9.9M!
A cursory (and uninformed) glance at the output shows a [720x480 / yuv420p
/ 29.97fps] stream in and the same thing out. The video input is
"mpeg2video" and the output is "libx264", the audio is AC3 in and AAC out.
*I need to know if that's just better packing or (this is the problem) I've
lost data in the conversion.*
How can I find out?
Below is the complete output from ffmpeg. Can anyone explain the 4x size
difference with the data there?
